I was actually just referring to `--add-modules`, but github added a few lines
before the one I selected.
I guess I'm not fully understanding what `rmid` is for in this context, and how
it relates to the `rmiregistry` command. I thought it was starting the
registry, but that does not seem to be it's primary purpose (maybe it starts it
as a side affect). Also, it is deprecated.
